...Shrinker. The story beats with the low but constant pulse of loss and dislocation-qualities that are found in greater measure in The Balloon, a wistful meld of love story and art appreciation, and in The Dolt, which tells of a writer who cannot think of middles for his stories. The Dolt is also an oblique comment on the limits of conventional storytelling forms and a squint at the generation gap: the writer's son is an 8-ft.-tall hippie draped with a scrape woven out of 200 transistor radios, all turned on and tuned in to different...
...Dodd Amendment." The Senate code requires that members report official, quasi-official, political and quasi-political funds raised at testimonial dinners and other such occasions (the "Dodd amendment"). For the first time, the murky area where campaign funds, office and personal expenses meld would be clearly defined and strictly regulated. But general disclosure of every Senator's financial holdings (which would, insisted Minority Leader Everett Dirksen, make Senators "second-class citizens") was not suggested. The code does propose that Senators file copies of their income tax returns with the committee-though in fact the committee already has authority...
...main action of the story, Saturday in Washington, was covered by a staff of 18. Among the marchers went Washington Correspondents Kenneth Danforth and Jerry Hannifin, as well as a group of specially recruited reporters and photographers.

In his battle to retain the presidency of the party last December, Sato had to meld the miasmic wishes of a dozen cliques in order to stave off the challenge of former Foreign Minister Aiichiro Fujiyama. He won with a hefty 119-vote margin. The "black mist" corruption charges raised by the left-charges that, in typically Japanese style, were never substantiated (TIME...
...these organic microcosms, the Western concept of the individual, upholding and upheld by a written law, has no meaning at all; right action is a meld of custom and propriety demonstrated by the behavior of the sage. Written contracts are usually mere pieces of paper. "No Chinese would understand Shylock's claim to a pound of flesh in The Merchant of Venice," says Harvard Law Professor Jerome Cohen. "The important thing is human relations. You imply a lack of trust when you allow for disputes in contracts." If disputes arise, they are settled through face-to-face negotiations...
